  1. Skinners is alive and well - I go there because they have blue licorice ice cream (blue tongue is the bane of my wife's existence) Half Moon around the corner is pretty great too.
  2. Weather looks great - should be a good night of FOOTBALL.
  3. Not a fan. Too much money for a blend. I know some blends are really good -- in fact one of my favourite scotches is a blend-- however JW doesn't do it for me. If I want cheap blended scotch I prefer Dewars or Grants over JW red. Try Grant's with an Ale (blue label) or Sherry (green label) cask finish. Really smooth, but MLCC doesn't carry it any more. It's still in Ontario though.
  4. No, but I love Jameson's; I'll have to give it a try some time.
  5. What you guys think of the Johnnie Walkers? I find they all taste pretty much the same, unless you're drinking some of the really high end ones.
  6. One word: venue If you'd ever been to a game in Toronto, you would understand. It's grid-locked and most people live nowhere near Skydome. For most it's two hours on the subway to get there, then two hours back home after the game. When you're trying to attract casual fans, that's a recipe for disaster. Oh and you can't even get an Argos beer cup...had to drink beer out of a Blue Jays cup. The Argos are literally second class citizens in that city.
  7. I don't think we'll get too many hits on Burris, no matter how many times we say it on here. We say the same thing every time the Bombers play Kevin Glenn. I do think he's more of an ad-libber than Ricky Ray, so it'll be interesting to see how our D adjusts to that. Given that he'll be facing a D with a different look, I think Willy is going to struggle this week. He'll need more time to read the zone coverage, hopefully the OL is up to the task.
  8. This also works: www.keepvid.com
  9. Come on man, that's just annoying. You know why Toronto was 12 - 1. Because Bishop isn't as bad as people made him out to be. He had 22 TDs and 11 ints that year. You don't play ten years in the league if you are awful. Guys like Max Hall who flame out with no wins are awful. Bishop was simply mediocre... Hall , Boltus, Goltz were awful. He'll win if Defense and ST's score the points for him.

  11. Feoli-Gudino
  12. Insurance costs money...whether you need it or not.
  13. Not any Catholic who knows a thing about their religion. Or are you confusing Catholics with Christians? Here's the thing, the church absorbed all the pagan holidays because it was easier to convert the heathens if they could say "hey look! all our holidays are the same as yours!" Halloween is All Hallows eve, ie. the night before all saints day. No one with a brain has a problem with the dressing up aspect because it's a harmless throw back to the pagan origins of the holiday. Christmas is on Dec. 25 because it was put there to counter a pagan holiday. Historical records indicate that Christ was probably born in summer. So much for all the carols about a cold stable. You do know, even in the desert, it can get very cold at night right? Even during the summer time Yeah, deserts get bloody cold at night. https://giltravel.com/israel-travel-resources/israel-temperatures-weather.html

    rain?

    Crops ruined or yield severely reduced across most of the province.
  15. "Literally" means you're 100% sure about that...I'm not.
  16. Not much O'Shea can't do. Pretty sure I saw him DJ'ing at the Rum Hut post game party O'Shea can say never.
  17. So much this. People just don't realize that even one drink at the wrong time can be damaging, especially in the early stages of pregnancy.
  18. I like 40 Creek and I don't even really like Rye.
  19. How about Aberlour? I've been through a few of those - very smooth. I haven't tried it, but haven't met a Speyside whiskey I didn't like. Any paticular version you are a fan of? The cast strength bottle seems like a pretty good value at the MLCC. I usually get that one. Expensive single malt is a rare purchase for me though. Usually a blend or Glenlivet.
  20. Pretty much anything is good after this game...
  21. Completely agree, we need to keep these kids out of jail if we can. Canada has one of the highest youth incarceration rates in the world - it's not working.
  22. How about Aberlour? I've been through a few of those - very smooth.
